Did you even think before posting Huh
I could ask you the same question.
You guys are being harsh to each other, you can talk to each other without this nonsense trash talking.


UTTERLY DUMB SUGGESTION ...  If you were to lock every duplicate thread here, ALL the threads would be locked, and no one would ever be able to post anything, because some thread in the past had the same content. 
It is natural that in a forum there is repeated content as the same questions surface on the mind of its members over and over again, but I suggested closing this thread as it was created in the same subforum with only one hour of difference, it makes no sense to have two different threads to talk about the same thing when we could use only one.
I saw the first one, but the poster of that merely summarizes what the link indicates, he didn't even say anything from his own words, so you better be weighing the content although they have the same topic. Besides if you push this idea of yours, locking threads coz they are duplicate then you should be reviewing all of the threads in here in the forum and suggests to lock it. The time interval of the post was just an hour, the OP could have been excited on sharing this, aside he got his own opinion in there, he even asked for others insight about this.

Now going back to the main topic, as for what I've read only emails is breached including what those emails have like phone numbers etc. If a user used his main email for ordering a ledger he better be dropping those for safety purposes and security. I don't think people who have ledger should be worry about this one since the hackers were not able to touch their funds, fail attempt perhaps from the hackers.

Just one hour ago a thread discussing this topic was opened so it is better to lock this thread.

Also to clarify one million emails were stolen but only the personal information of 9500 people was leaked, that is bad enough but it is way less than what you are stating.

Contact and order details were involved. This is mostly the email address of our customers, approximately 1M addresses. Further to investigating the situation we have also been able to establish that, for a subset of 9500 customers were also exposed, such as first and last name, postal address, phone number or ordered products. Due to the scope of this breach and our commitment to our customers, we have decided to inform all of our customers about this situation.

With over 1 million emails that the hackers were able to get, there is nothing more they get, they did not accessed the user's phrases and private keys, seems like 90% of their user's belongings is safe and unaffected by the said breaching. Should we be worry about this? Coz the hackers were able to get a 1 million address, postal code and phone numbers. Do I need to check who's knocking on my door in the next few days? - hmm I guess not. I like how the CEO of Ledger humbly apologizes for what happened saying it was their fault and accountable for what just happened.

But I'm just wondering, this happened in June but they have just open it after a month it happened. Is that how they control the panic ?

If you got one of a hardware wallet and someone emails you a link or whatsoever, better not to give even a single damn about it. Let the situation be settled first. Just a reminder  Wink
